Ah, thank you for asking -- now I know something I need to document.
Those are for branches that don't have labels (symbolic names). This
is quite possible in an RCS file. Look in the revision header section
of some of those RCS files, you'll see branch commits, yet the
symbolic names section will have no label for that branch.
